I graduated from UC Berkeley in May 2019 with my undergraduate degree in Molecular and Cell Biology (Immunology) and a minor in Global Poverty and Practice. As an undergraduate, I first grew interested in immunology research at Dr. Ellen Robey's lab, where I studied the mechanisms behind positive selection of T-cell progenitors in the thymus. My interest in autoimmune disorders brought me to UCSF, where I now research immune tolerance mechanisms and T-cell maturation and regulation. Outside of lab, you can find me writing, exploring the city's bars & cafes, or jamming out on piano, cello, & bass (guitar).
